Hey, look at me, I'm a dancing bear in a bow to a gypsy king,

He taught me everything I know and he plays a mean tambourine,

And he got a gold ring in his ear, I got a brass one in my nose,

For any mother's son, for any mamma's cub way it goes.

Now, I like my life, that's all I know, there's nothing that I lack

So why do I do dream of the bark of a tree

To scratch my back and figure out

Why I groove on a rainbow trout?

Dreams, dreams, dreams, recurring dreams.

Hmmm, why do I have these dreams?

Right foot in and right foot out

Hmmm that's what it's all about - dreams.

Dreams...

I watch the world go buy through the bars of my mobile home

Why ain't I satisfied, what do you mean by "Yellowstone"?

Now, he's got a foulard made of silk, I got a collar, I got a chain,

But he drives our car and he pays my bills and I only dance when it doesn't rain.

Like any bear I've ever seen midways that I was raised,

But why do I dream of a sweet running stream

So cold and waiting? Tell me why

I get so sleepy in the wintertime?

Dreams, dreams, dreams, recurring dreams.

Ohmm, why do I have these dreams?

Put your left foot in and your left foot out

Hmm, baby, that's what it's all about - dreams.

Dreams...

Now, he's got a lunch box, I got a pail,

I climb a ladder, he plays the drum

He got a moustache, I got a tail,

We're just doing like we always done

Two steps is all I know, two steps is okay by me

But why all these dreams of rolling 'round

On daisy greens? I got no clue,

Just this feeling of deja vu.

Dreams, dreams, dreams, recurring dreams.

Hmmmm, why do I have these dreams?

Right foot in and right foot out

Hmmm, that's what it's all about - dreams.

I'm a Yellowstone cowbear

That's why

Yeah!

Rrrrrrrrrgh!
